It's obvious he's feeling guilty.

He was afraid that Onoki would fight him to the death if he found out.

Chapter 44: Keep the music playing! Keep the dance going! [Requesting data]

"You damn beast!!!"

"How could such a beast exist?!"

At this moment, Onoki was so angry he almost banged his head on the ground.

To know,

The treasury contains far more than just 35 billion ryo; it's what Onoki saved up over the years to rebuild Iwagakure.

The amount is far greater than 35 billion taels.

It was clear that all the money had been robbed by that shameless Fourth Raikage.

Onoki hurriedly looked towards Byakuya.

Unexpectedly, Bai Ye overheard their conversation.

But she spoke softly, "I don't care whose money it is."

"Whoever hands the money to me owns it."

Seeing that Bai Ye only cares about money and not people,

Ohnoki was at his wit's end.

Now the only option is to ask the daimyo for money.

Otherwise, the village simply wouldn't be able to raise the money in such a short time.

35 billion taels

Worth 100 Sarutobi Asuma

Only Daming Prefecture could afford to pay this amount directly.

At this point, Onoki became increasingly angry.

"Yellow earth! Go!"

"Go to Daming Prefecture immediately and get the money!!!"

"No matter what the daimyo's reasons are, we must get this money!"

After all,

The loess soil beside them dared not be delayed.

I can't get the money.

Deidara and Kurotsuchi cannot be redeemed.

These two are the future of Iwagakure.

There can be absolutely no mistakes.

He then led several secret agents and quickly headed to Daming Prefecture.

As for Onoki...

At this moment, however, he was constantly making plans in his mind.

After the person is redeemed,

We must go and cause trouble for Kumogakure.

That damned Fourth Raikage,

Absolutely shameless!

They didn't have the money to ransom the hostage, so they came to rob Iwagakure of their money.

No wonder they inexplicably wanted to attack the Land of Earth.

It seems they had this plan in mind for a while.

After figuring out most of what the Fourth Raikage was thinking,

Ōnoki then made up his mind.

this matter,

We must make those brutes from Hidden Cloud Village give us an explanation.

As time goes by...

Bai Ye was too lazy to wait there any longer.

after all,

The Land of Earth's environment is even worse than the Land of Lightning's.

This lousy place...

It was all barren mountains.

Watching it for too long really affects your mood.

"Alright, now that your man is here, have him deliver the money to Konoha to exchange for the person."

"Waiting here is a waste of time!"

After all,

He then turned around and led everyone back without looking back.

Having been out for so many days,

It's time to go back too.

Although supplies and other provisions were prepared well in advance for this expedition,

But with so many supplies

Eat less and leave more.

The rest,

Nature is yours.

Seeing that Bai Ye was about to leave,

Ohnoki was also getting anxious.

There are only two futures in the entire Hidden Stone Village.

You took it all.

If anything goes wrong, who will I, an old man, cry to?

"Hey, hey, I've already given you the ninjutsu scroll!"

"The money will be delivered soon. Do you think we could put in another one?"

Regarding this request,

After thinking for a moment, Bai Ye agreed immediately.

He then ordered someone to return Deidara to Onoki.

As for the hostages

Kurotsuchi, Onoki's granddaughter, was left behind.

I'm not afraid that the old man will go back on his word.

As for Deidara

Bringing them along would just mean having another mouth to feed.

We still have to take care of this kid for several days.

This kid might even start swearing during dinner.

So be it,

Out of sight, out of mind.

We should just return it to Onoki.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, send the money as soon as possible."

"You wouldn't want anything to happen to your granddaughter while she's staying with me, would you?"

Hearing this,

Onoki's already not-so-pleasant mood suddenly became even worse.

He was almost driven mad by the Fourth Raikage.

Only then did Onoki realize what was happening.

His precious granddaughter has probably been ruined by this little devil.

When I think of this,

Onoki had an urge to use a dust escape technique to reduce the white night before him to ashes.

However, considering Bai Ye's unknown strength,

Onoki held back again.

Not to mention, there were two Mangekyou Sharingan Uchiha clansmen eyeing them covetously from the sidelines.

"understood!"

"I'll send it over as soon as possible!"

In order to free his granddaughter from her suffering as soon as possible

Ohnoki said he would send the money as soon as possible.

quickly,

Byakuya led the Konoha army out of the Land of Earth.

They headed back towards Konoha.

And Onoki,

He looked at the mess in front of him.

Silently standing still,

Nobody knows what that old guy is thinking.

But soon,

Deidara then woke up.

Upon waking, he began frantically searching for Bai Ye.

Seeing this, Onoki, who was standing nearby,

He also patted Deidara on the shoulder.

He signaled to his apprentice to wake up.

"Now do you know why I'm so strict with you?"

"The ninja world is a very complex place..."

"No matter how much I explain it to you now, you won't understand."

Hearing this,

Deidara fell silent.

Looking at his hands, he was filled with resentment.
